If you're in the market for a small-to-medium premium SUV, you need to know more about the all-new Lexus NX 200t. You see, Lexus models of late have been excellent vehicles but the engines are rather old and not very fuel efficient, unless you go for the hybrid options. The NX 200t is the start of a new era.
It features the company's first 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine. In fact, it's the first turbo-petrol engine ever offered by Lexus. And for that reason alone this is quite an important vehicle; this engine is likely to be introduced in all Lexus models in the future. Many questions need to be answered. Is the new engine a worthy fix for the economy issues? Is it powerful enough? Does it suit the Lexus brand image?
We'll try and answer these as best we can as we take the Sports Luxury variant for a journey from Sydney, across the Hay Plans and into South Australia, and then down and back across to Sydney via The Great Ocean Road.
